Nepotism, favoritism...

NOT SO OBVIOUS PROBLEMS.

May 31, 1986

OTTAWA — NOT SO OBVIOUS PROBLEMS. Nepotism, favoritism, intimidation and sexual harassment. They abound on Parliament Hill, says the Canadian Labor Congress. In a brief to a parliamentary committee examining legislation to allow the Hill's 3,000 messengers, cafeteria staff and other service workers limited union rights, the 2 million-member congress argued this week that reform is overdue. One example cited: A female employee whose manager touched and rubbed against her and assigned her a heavier workload when she protested.
